NUMERICAL INVESTIGATION OF THE INFLUENCE OF FRONT CAMBER ON THE STABILITY OF A COMPRESSOR AIRFOIL

With the advent of smart materials it is becoming possible to alter the structural characteristics of turbomachine airfoils. This change in structural characteristics can include, but is not limited to, changes in the shape (morphing) of the airfoil. Through changes in the airfoil shape, aerodynamic...
